No Way I'm in Panic

Artist: Various
Title: No Way I'm in Panic
Release: 1998
Label: Mangrove Label

Track List:
1. Freaks - Faster
2. Flux Cored Wire - Keep
3. Assfort - Ejaculation Remix

This is a pretty awesome compilation featuring three Japanese bands (or is it a three way split?). Freaks and Flux Cored Wire are both fairly typical and fairly good Japanese hardcore. Assfort is too, but their track on this is some sort of weird lo-fi remix. Not a whole lot of replay value on that side. But the Freaks/Flux Cored Wire side is fantastic.

Charm - 顰

Artist: Charm
Title: 顰 (Shikami)
Release: 2004
Label: 625 Thrashcore

Track List:
1. 闇よ追って来い
2. 愛憎
3. 無用の助
4. 雨がトンズラ
5. ガラクタ
6. 人因線
7. スクリーン・デス
8. 底なしの閉銷感
9. バビロンの圧勝
10. Rabid Dogs (Corrosion of Conformity)

I picked this one up the same night I got the Fuck on the Beach/Matka Teresa split. This was put out by 625 Thrashcore so you should know what to expect here. They also do a bad ass Corrosion of Conformity cover. I would kill to be at some of their upcoming shows (as of when this post was written).

The name of this 7", 顰 (shikami) means knitted brows or frown and is also a type of mask used in 能 (Noh) plays for portraying angry evil spirits.

This record caught me by surprise in a very unusual way. The A side plays at 33 rpm and the B side plays at 45 rpm. I didn't notice until after I recorded the B side and it was way slower than the A side. I've always wondered if anyone out there has ever done that. I guess the answer is yes.

Also, in case anyone is curious, the tracklist on discogs.com for this 7" is wrong (track 8 specifically). You can double check the scans of the back and inside to see so yourself.

Fuck on the Beach/Matka Teresa - All the World / Untitled

Artist: Fuck on the Beach/Matka Teresa
Title: All the World / Untitled
Release: 2003
Label: Regurgitated Semen Records

Track List:
1. Fuck on the Beach - All the World
2. Fuck on the Beach - Throat or Die
3. Matka Teresa - Society Sucks
4. Matka Teresa - Out of Step
5. Matka Teresa - From Education To...
6. Matka Teresa - Last Pray in the Way to Hell
7. Matka Teresa - Restricted (Rot)

Fuck yeah! I've been looking for this one for a long time. I love Fuck on the Beach and a good digital copy of this split with Amsterdam grindcore outfit Matka Teresa has been impossible to find. Fortunately, Matt from Wild//Tribe had a copy in his awesome distro, Punk Alive Records, at a show this past evening. He doesn't have anything up for sale on his blog right now, but he said he would soon. You should definitely check it out. His prices are almost too fair.

Anyways, here's the split, freshly ripped and converted to V0 mp3. Covers included.
